Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Torlak is the best physician I've ever had:she's professional, empathetic, listens well and is an experienced clinician. She's the primary reason that I choose Dignity Health as my healthcare provider.

She is a good primary care doctor
I have been taking my Mom to see her the last 6 years post stroke for check ups. She is very nice and listens attentively. May switch to her as my Primary Care Doctor as well.

Today I saw Dr. Torlak for some skin issues. She was very thorough and she's a good listener. She also gave me a referral to a dermatologist, and checked up on all my other routine tests and encouraged to me to get those done! I needed that. It was a good visit. Nice doctor.

Dr. Torlak does not listen to a very I'll person. She will not make eye contact and is too busy on the computer keyboard to help. I had to go out of network to get help with my osteoarthritis issues and after 3 fusion surgeries I did not trust her with my life any longer. I was scared to death of her after withdrawals from medication that she just decided to drop me from. Be careful with this doctor. Very Scared.

Today was my first visit with Dr. Torlak and I had a wonderful experience! She was very kind and answered all my questions with detail. She was very efficient which I really appreciate. I got right in with the medical assistant and Dr. Torlak walked in after maybe 3 minutes. The whole office at Mercy including the valet was wonderful. Highly recommend!!!

I lost my UC Davis insurance and thought I could never find a better doctor then I had there. Dr. Torlak was so empathetic and concerned of my Ulcerative Colitis flare and since I'm suffering badly she requested and urgent appointment with a referral to a GI doctor . I had an appointment 2 days later with a GI DR. Dr. Torlak is amazing and I love her. I would recommend her to everyone I know and don't know. Kind, considerate. I'm 100% satisfied and blessed to have her as my doctor.

I've been in 2 appointments with her. She is very thorough and is not a clock-watcher. She answers all questions and shows genuine concern for the patients. I have many health issues and am new to seeing her but so far so good. She has been very respectful of patients opinions.
